Hi Guys!
I trust you had a good Xmas & New Year! It was a bit quiet for me (but I did celebrate my birthday continuously for about 2 weeks earlier in December:). I enjoyed doing my first charity gigs at Diverse Crawley (Performance here with Andrew Williams & Fatima Moseley) & United Reform Church (Send me video if anyone has clips on their phones!)
Guitar Hub at Crawley Museum.
This is a great opportunity to finally get out your guitar and come out to play. Whatever your age or level. Together, we can prepare to perform some classic songs. When you are confident enough, you will be able to join our local musicians on the stage for a jam session! Join Alex Ede's event at The Swan, Open Mic (Every Other Tuesday from 7:30pm).
I was busy following up on collaborations and looking to venture out into nearby venue towns like The Malt Shovel, Horsham, The Bull's Head, The Market, The Pilgrim, New Music Nights, The Roe Deer, The Cage, The Yard in Reigate, Soundlounge in Sutton, East Grinstead (Hop Yard in Forrest Row) and various venues in Brighton & Hove.
I'm checking out new venues for a guitar social club as well as making plans to re-launch my Guitar Hub workshops in Crawley Museum, a great space for all the family to visit (Coffee only £1.50 :).
Dynamic Duos
Since our RedEyeZack & Friends collective at HMV, I've been thinking of taking it to the next level. I'm looking to create the next collective event before the end of March! In the meantime looking at other venues and new collaborators. Here is a very talented guitarist, Alex Turner, I came across at The Brewery Shades ( I tip my hat to Ian Burroughs and Nicky for putting on such a wonderful Summer of live music in the square).
We had a jam around my original music and I was blown away by his diversity of playing.

The Gas (Local Band) - Upcoming Single Release
After attending the recording session of The Gas new single 'Low-life', It was wonderful to be filming the band and be in such a professional recording studio. I've just completed a trailer and short 'behind the scenes' documentary' style video. I'll keep you updated on the release and a few milestone gigs planned for March/April.
It would be great if you could support our events or join our mailing list and subscribe to get updates, latest news and behind the scenes footage of new music.
